The 1st Global Autism Summit –
The 1st Global Autism Summit –
Building an Inclusive Ecosystem
The 1st Global Autism Summit is more than a conference — it is the flagship of a global ecosystem where governments, industries, researchers, associations, and families come together to co-create concrete solutions for autism inclusion. Held under the patronage of H.H. Sheikh Khaled Bin Zayed Al Nahyan, it builds on four editions of the International Autism Conference Abu Dhabi (2023–2026), which grew from 700 to 6,000 participants and closed 2026 with a six-pillar strategy spanning Healthcare, Education, Research, Community Integration, AI & Innovation, and Inclusive Workplaces. The ecosystem runs year-round through the permanent Global Autism Platform in Abu Dhabi, and culminates each April in a seven-day flagship — the Summit (24–26 April 2027) and the 5th International Autism Conference (27–30 April 2027), both at the Abu Dhabi Energy Center — positioning itself as the leading global platform for collaboration and innovation. Our mission is clear: to unite all stakeholders and build a society where inclusion is not an option, but a standard.
